You may open your door, look at the door frame slightly below the door lock hook, there is a piece of sticker indicate the color code. You can use that color code to find out. FYI, most touch up paint available at hyper market as well. All you need is the color code nod.gif

I know this is sign0006.gif , but saw this early in the morning, reminds me of the current safety in this country shakehead.gif



1) Take away your car key/house key/henfon when you go isi petrol
2) Avoid midnight fill up
3) If those bugger indeed wanted your car, just ditch it and file a police report

Tonight brought my taxi out for a quick tour in KL, street wasn't very "bersih" despite being "bersih"ing. Jalan Tun Perak was clogged up, I turn to Petaling Street, still people mountain people sea. I wasn't impressed by the sampah everywhere. My car is quite standard from the outlook, didn't draw much attention from the crowd. However, several GaGa did open their window and snap photo whilst tailing me. Took a wild guess, either the plaster or the thick lower bar draw their attention, provided my lifted butt, the white ULAR lower bar is more obvious! After mengtaxikan my GaGa for several weeks, below is my honest review for SiuYi. No poison meant. Even if it's poison, supposed not many of you would be interested.

My very first impression after I installed the springs was like shocking.gif OMG! The car has been lifted up so much in an awkward way! I wasn't impressed by the outlook itself as it does looks like face down ass up the way we like to f*** kinda hideous. Reluctantly, I reversed the car and left the tire shop. Money and time invested, in return is a hedious outlook, makes me think this must be another remorseful decision I made.

The thickness of SAPURA PRORIDE standard specification spring is thicker compare to stock springs. The spring was manufactured with cold compress(according to the specification), it should stand rust corrossion, provided with powder coated surface. Cold compress also ensure the tensile strength/structure integrity/shape remain longer compare to hot coils. These springs can easily last me 20 years and or above. I did a comparison with standard coil spring, both length are the same from top-bottom measurement(this is to ensure the same travelling distance on the absorber similar to stock spring). However, Proride is 1 coil extra compare to stock spring. This allowed the spring to be harder and able to carry more weight without jeopadizing too much comfortness.

Surprisingly, after few days driving around(mostly by wifey), finally the new springs settled down. The ass wasn't as high as it was when I newly fitted them. I consulted my magician, he explained all factory/standard specification springs are PROGRESSIVE setup. Meaning the coil spring from big round coil on top gradually tighten to smaller round at the bottom. Reason being, to allowed reasonable bodyroll whenever its needed. For example, when going through a speedbump, only the big round coil will be compress, so you wouldn't feel harsh bounce. Where as the smaller round will be incharge of bigger action. The other function for the big round coil is to furnish enough space to sustain the seperated absorbers. Without this PROGRESSIVE design, if we went through JUMP(over speed on speedbumps), the spring decompressed and could detached from the base!!! So, these seems unuseable/low strength big round coil served its important purpose. After several days of driving, by right these big round will adjust itself to a more comfortable position with the vehicle weight. Now the car looks more reasonable, instead of stuff r3apers head, it can only fit Guguman since it settled quite a lot. I'm not 100% satisfied with the outlook, but its not until the extend of disgusting me when I newly installed.

These springs is no magic, but it served the purpose well. SiuYi recommended these springs for me since I was complaining sagat issue. Now I have no problem with 55 series R15 tires anymore, even with 6 adults + a 5 year old kid at the backseat. Harder spring also mean the car will be slightly more bumpier. I'm currently still utilizing stock damper, the decompress rate of the spring is higher than the original spring, therefore if I do not slow down on speed bumps, the rear spring will quickly reject the absorber as a result will be a harsh landing. I can no longer "fly" through speed bumps, maximum speed would be around 40kmh for most kind of taman-taman's speed bumps. Bigger bumps are negligible! Can go with 60~80kmh without any issue, like monster truck running over the small sedan cars. On daily driving routine, I almost didn't feel much difference, until I was driving from Jln Kewagipan towards Gubang airport. Another surprise, normally my car unable to cruise far since the centre of gravity is wrong, too high become more wind drag. With these springs, it felt like momentum has been more focused on the front wheels and able to travel further without engine power. Belief it or not, I sense that even the brake force has been transferred to the front, therefore the overall improvement in braking is quite satisfied. Those SAPURA PRORIDE standard specification spring did very well and affordable.

You drive GaGa meh? sweat.gif 比你激死

QUOTE(dares @ Aug 31 2012, 09:34 AM)
How to love my gaga more? take an occasional drive on my sis's Vios.

Yesterday I was driving around in the Toyolda, feels farking so underpowered. On a level road I could not keep up with a 1.3 Saga FLX, and then on the uphill slope on MRR2 near Cheras Tesco Extra, towards Ampang direction, I literally floored the damn throttle and all it does is maintain speed up the hill while the engine screamed in agony. My gf asked me to stop because the engine sound was unnerving her.

Before you say "Of course la you are comparing to a 1.6 CVT", I havent gotten to the best part yet. While on that slope, the 1NZ-FE engine screaming up the hill, a black BLM overtook me  doh.gif  doh.gif

I dunno whether that's because her engine oil broke down so much it has turned into powder, or the throttle body is so dirty the engine is suffocating, I don't think the car is very healthy at the moment.  hmm.gif  hmm.gif

notworthy.gif thankyall for the Gabby concern. I understand the AMT issue, and therfore I'm aiming for MT now. Some of the known issues in Gabby is more severe compare to GaGa, for example their powah steering issue is 9/10 - 90% struck rate. Every owner also kena once or twice already, think the 10% left is either their car total loss before the steering pecah, or the car got stolen. I must prepare for that. Heard the repair/change of powah steering will cost around 600 bucks shocking.gif

Meanwhile, as our conversation yesterday, also found the ignition coil that can't withstand heat, which will melt over the years. So, instead of maintenace free it became wear & tear item in the car! My Iswaga's ignition distributor set already 16 years still running strong. Whereas Gabby's ignition coil & plug cable need to change every one or two years time from what I heard sweat.gif

With all these crap, I'm still considering whether wanna buy or not. For your information, I might really convert my Gabby into a BLM when budget allowed laugh.gif
